The agency said that second accused person Abraham Hassan who did not show up for the hearing was sentenced in absentia and his Sh1 million bond forfeited to the State.

The DCI stated that the owner of the lorry that was used to transport the drug has been given 14 days to explain why the vehicle should not be forfeited to the state.
